Property Details
Description
Designed by renowned architect Rosario Candela, this distinguished prewar cooperative embodies the grand scale and understated elegance that defines classic Upper West Side living. Perfectly positioned on the coveted corner of West End Avenue and 85th Street, this beautifully renovated two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath residence offers timeless architecture paired with thoughtful modern refinement. A gracious entry foyer sets an immediate tone of scale and proportion, unfolding into treetop views and a well-balanced layout ideal for both comfortable daily living and polished entertaining. The windowed kitchen has been meticulously renovated with a Carrara marble backsplash, Corian countertops, custom cabinetry, and premium appliances, including a Bertazzoni range and Liebherr refrigerator. A Miele washer and dryer add the rare convenience of in-home laundry. The expansive primary bedroom comfortably accommodates a king-sized bed and features generous closet space, along with custom storage built beneath the windows overlooking leafy West End Avenue. The second bedroom is equally well-proportioned and enhanced by two renovated closets with integrated lighting and Elfa systems. Both baths are elegantly finished in marble and porcelain tile, creating a refined and cohesive aesthetic throughout the home. Additional storage has been thoughtfully integrated to maximize functionality without compromising design. 522 West End Avenue is a full-service Candela building offering a full-time doorman, live-in superintendent, central laundry room, bike storage, and a beautifully maintained marble lobby and garden. Pets, subletting, and pied-à-terre ownership are permitted with board approval. Financing up to 75% is allowed, and there is no flip tax. Moments from Riverside Park, express transportation, and the Upper West Side’s most celebrated markets and cultural institutions—including Citarella, Zabar’s, Fairway, the American Museum of Natural History, and the Beacon Theatre—this residence delivers architectural pedigree, modern comfort, and an address of enduring distinction. Showings by private appointment.
